    Hollywood tough man Sylvester Stallone is launching his own fashion line in 2012, inspired by his most famous movie roles--Rambo and Rocky. Though the men's collection will initially include jeans, shirts, underwear and outerwear, we couldn't help imagining what sort of suit ensembles the übermacho characters would inspire. Predictably, our vision was more cargo than couture.

    FILM

    Miss Marple Makeover

    At first we were excited to read about plans to revive Agatha Christie's beloved elderly sleuth Miss Marple in an upcoming movie. Then we found out that the role of the British spinster would be updated to the present day and likely played by 38-year-old Jennifer Garner. If they wanted a sexy Marple, why didn't they just go with Helen Mirren?

    5 THINGS YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THIS WEEK

    1. A year without a Pixar film.

    The studio's 2012 pic will be Monsters University, a Monsters Inc. prequel.

    2. America's Charlie Sheen obsession.

    It is waning. Tickets to his "sold out" tour are going cheap on scalper sites.

    3. Never seeing Johnny Depp act like a normal person again.

    He will star in an adaptation of nonwacky Hunter S. Thompson novel The Rum Diary.

    4. Saving your tunes on computers.

    Amazon's new music locker will put them in the cloud.

    5. The ukulele.

    Eddie Vedder is releasing a solo album devoted to the instrument.
